Grand Héron / Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias)

Dans une quinzaine de minutes, il a capturé deux poissons de grande taille, une barbotte de 12 pouces et un brochet d'au moins 24 pouces. Une pêche très fructueuse! Il a eu beaucoup de difficultés à ingérer le brochet.

In about fifteen minutes, he caught two large fish, a 12-inch catfish and a pike of at least 24 inches. A very successful fishing! He had a lot of trouble eating pike.

Truly amazing. When I saw the next pic I wondered how he could fly after eating it! Great catch.

Wow, what an impressive catch, for both you and the heron! A huge meal almost as large as himself.

What an amazing capture Pierre for both for you and for the Heron. Excellent clarity and detail. This is not something that you are likely to see very often. VVV

Superbe prise pour vous deux. Je crois qu’il avait les yeux plus grand que la panse.

Vraiment c'est toute une scène que tu as saisie et surtout la période de captures de ces proies et en plus de le voire absorber ce lunch!!!
